St Mirren have signed striker Paul McGowan on a season-long loan deal from SPL giants Celtic.

The 22-year-old has made just a handful of starts for the Bhoys to date and has previously been loaned out to Morton and Hamilton Academical.

McGowan told his new club's official website: "I need to start playing games, so I'm looking forward to being with St Mirren. It is a new challenge for me, but when Danny Lennon phoned me he was really positive and everything about coming here sounded really good."

Also joining the Buddies is former Kilmarnock midfielder Sean Lynch, who has signed a one-year contract after impressing during pre-season training.

The 23-year-old was released by Killie at the end of last season, having been hampered by injuries in recent times.
